could you please help me with this Pleosporales which I were not able to determine. It grew on a branch of Salix, the ascomata are opening slit-like and slightly immersed. The spores have a thick gel sheath as long as they are hyaline, when they are mature the sheath is gone and the spores are slightly brownish. They have 4-9 septa and are (32)38-51 x (9)9,5-10, the asci are bitunicate and 8-spored.
Best wishes,
Gernot

Re:Lophiostomataceae
Hi Gernot,
your fungus ressembles to Lophiostoma massarioides (Sacc.) Holm., although Holm does not speak about ascospore with a sheath.
All the best,
Christian

Re:Lophiostomataceae
I thought at L. subcorticale (one septate generally ! , it isn't that) but the good proposition is given by Christian.
A very nice recolt.
Alain
A very nice recolt.

Re:Lophiostomataceae
It would be a good idea to see all the descriptions around massarioides, appendiculatum, appendiculatum var littorale and why not alpigenum. Which one has sheath ? which one never has a sheath ? ... Material lacks and your recolt is an important recolt you does keep very carefully.

Re:Lophiostomataceae
Hi Christian and Alain,
thank you very much for you help. Unfortunately I don't have any literature on L. massarioides, could you maybe scan me the description by Holm?

Re:Lophiostomataceae
Hi Christian,
you are great, thank you very much! The description fits quite well and at least they mention that Saccardo reported a sheath, even though Holm & Holm didn't see one. In my collection I could observe a sheath in some ascomata while others didn't have one or very few. I think that a collection with mainly older, mature spores could lack a sheath and maybe it disappears in dead material.
Anyway a very nice find and I'm happy with the outcome!
Best wishes,
Gernot
